Join Figs in Wigs at the Unity Theatre for their live art feminist adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s revered 19th-century classic. Little Wimmin takes an outlandish and anarchic look at the literary canon, people’s obsession with ‘the classics’ and the traditional theatrical form.

It’s safe to say this production is not a direct translation of Little Women. Brilliantly trippy with super gaudy costumes and cabaret-style glitz, Figs in Wigs’ bring a bold and pleasing blend of fierce feminist performance art, dance and avant-garde humour to Liverpool this April.
